Ruling: No, Volibear does not trigger to ramp when Set is played. Volibear sees Set enter as a 4 Might unit before Set's buff applies.

Sequence:

  • Set is played as a 4 Might unit
  • Volibear's ability checks and sees a 4 Might unit (does not trigger)
  • Set's buff then applies, making it 5 Might

Nuances:

  • The result would be different if Set entered already buffed, but since the buff is a play trigger, it happens after Volibear checks the unit's Might value

Does this answer look correct?
